Welcome to the Executive Moms NETWORK

Before "social networking" was a buzzphrase, Executive Moms was founded to enable fabulous women who are mothers and professionals to have the resources, networking and connections to help them thrive. Now, we can better deliver on the "networking and connections" part... with the debut of our own social network! So first, JOIN the NETWORK by CREATING a PROFILE! Then, invite all the other great Executive Moms you know to do the same. And then, use it in all the ways you see fit!

The Greatness (and Occasional Ugliness) of Moms Online

As I just noted in this week's "Executive Momorandum," it is a source of delight and some amusement to me that Moms have "suddenly" become the hot target audience; new darlings in the media, and the new dominators OF the media. Our aptitude for connectivity and embrace of technology as its conduit have made moms not only a marketer's key target, but their best new media strategy, too.
